Coronavirus Testing at Denver Health

To help protect our patients, staff and community while following city and state guidelines, Denver Health is testing all patients who are admitted to the hospital for COVID-19. For all non-hospitalized patients, limited testing is available with an order from a provider and an appointment. All patients entering a Denver Health facility can expect to have their temperature taken and be given masks to wear.

Walk-in COVID-19 testing is not available at any Denver Health location. For more information on COVID-19, call the Colorado helpline at 303-389-1687.

What to Do if You Have COVID-19 Symptoms

If believe you might have COVID-19, call the Denver Health NurseLine at 303-739-2111. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, please call 911 directly.

You may also contact your primary care provider through your MyChart account or call your primary care clinic. They will be able to determine if you meet guidelines for testing and if you need to be seen for an in-person visit.

Visitor Information

To help prevent the spread of COVID-19, no visitors are permitted at Denver Health with limited exceptions.

Outpatient Surgeries and Procedures Update
